Definitions
- the invention relates to a device and a method for training a neural network.
- Neural networks are known. They are implemented in particular for technical purposes as artificial neural networks and serve e.g. of information processing in applications in which there is little or no explicit or systematic knowledge of the problem to be solved. These are, for example, recognition methods, such as text recognition, image recognition, object recognition and face recognition, in which a few hundred thousand to million pixels have to be converted into a comparatively small number of permitted results. (Artificial) neural networks are also used in control engineering to replace conventional controllers or to give them setpoints that the network has determined from a self-developed prognosis of the process. The possible applications are not limited to technical or technology-related areas. When predicting changes in complex systems, neural networks are often used as a support, for example for the early detection of emerging tornadoes or for estimating the further development of economic processes.
- neural network To achieve the desired functionality of a neural network, it is necessary that the neural network is taught or trained. Accordingly, learning methods are known which serve to cause a neural network to generate associated output patterns for certain input patterns. The learning processes can be classified into supervised learning, unsupervised learning and reinforcing learning.
- neural networks can be relatively inexpensive to set up, implement and operate, so that they can be used to replace conventional (expensive) systems.
- the invention is therefore based on the object of specifying a device and a method with which a neural network can be trained efficiently.
- An apparatus for training a neural network is specified, with a neural network to be trained for providing a predetermined functionality for processing input data, with an input for supplying the input data and an output for outputting output data serving as result, and with one Evaluation device for providing a predetermined functionality, with an input for supplying input data and an output for outputting output data serving as results.
- the evaluation device and the neural network are arranged parallel to one another, a comparison device being provided for comparing the output data of the evaluation device with the output data of the neural network and for determining the quality of the output data of the neural network in relation to the output data of the evaluation device. Furthermore, a feedback device is provided for reporting back to the neural network the quality of the output data determined by the comparison device.
- a method for training a neural network is specified, with the steps Providing a neural network to be trained for providing a predetermined functionality for processing input data, having an input for supplying the input data and an output for outputting output data serving as results;
- an evaluation device for providing a predetermined functionality, with an input for supplying input data and an output for outputting output data serving as results;
- the evaluation device and the neural network can accordingly be arranged or switched in parallel.
- the evaluation device can be a known, conventional system which, under certain circumstances, conforms to specified technical rules, already reliably fulfills the desired functionality.
- the evaluation device can be relatively expensive, so that the aim is to replace the evaluation device with the neural network to be trained beforehand.
- the evaluation device takes over the training of the neural network by being operated in parallel.
- the evaluation device can also be referred to as a training device.
- the evaluation device can be a conventional device that is not based on a neural network. It is also possible, however, that the evaluation device itself has a neural network, which, however, is then already fully trained or trained.
- the term "functionality" can be understood to mean any applications, tasks or goals which are to be provided by the evaluation device on the one hand and the neural network to be trained on the other hand.
- both systems are therefore identified with input situations that are as identical faced onen. Only then is it possible to transfer the behavior and knowledge of one system (the proven evaluation device) to the other system (the neural network to be learned). The more identical the input situations and thus the resulting input data, the more reliably the neural network can be trained.
- the comparison device is used to compare the (essentially correct and proven) output data of the evaluation device with the output data of the neural network and thereby to determine the quality of the output data of the neural network in relation to the output data of the evaluation device.
- the data are evaluated in particular, so that the feedback required below can take place with the aid of the feedback device.
- the feedback device is designed to return the quality of the output data determined by the comparison device to the neural network in order in this way to effect a training effect for the neural network and thus subsequently to improve the quality of the output data of the neural network.
- Quadality of the output data can be understood, for example, to mean the correctness of the probabilities (also referred to as "prediction") supplied by the neural network.
- Neural networks are usually trained to determine certain probabilities and to draw conclusions from them. These probabilities can be compared with the much more exact data of the (conventional) evaluation device, the result being reported back to the neural network.
- a dog is presented to a neural network via a connected video camera. Based on its training status, the neural network states that the object presented can be 80% dog, 80% cat or 10% fish. The quality of these results is then determined and fed back into the neural network as feedback:
- Conventional methods can be used for the feedback of the quality information on the output data to the neural network, such as, for example, back propagation, feedback, error feedback.
- the neural network learns based on the given learning material. Accordingly, the weights between the individual neurons are usually modified. Learning rules specify the way in which the neural network makes these changes.
- the device according to the invention and the method according to the invention make it possible to learn neural networks automatically and to dispense with the pre-generation of test data sets. Rather, real data records are generated during operation of the (conventional) evaluation device, which can be used to train the neural network.
- an already existing solution (conventional evaluation device) is combined with a new solution based on a neural network in the learning phase (training phase). It is possible that different sensor systems are used for the then combined systems.
- the existing solution takes over the training of the new solution (the neural network).
- the input and output parameters of the existing solution are used to generate the feedback for the feedback (for example the so-called back propagation) of the neural network.
- the input data for the evaluation device and the input data for the neural network can each be provided by a sensor device.
- Any type of measured value recording is suitable as a sensor device, such as a (video) camera, a video sensor (e.g. IR), an imaging RADAR sensor, a LIDAR sensor, a 2D camera, a 3D camera , a microphone.
- the sensor device is designed to generate the input data in such a way that they can be processed by the neural network or the evaluation device.
- other components can also be interposed in order to prepare the data accordingly if this is necessary due to the characteristics of the sensor device.
- the input data for the evaluation device and the input data for the neural network can be provided by different sensor devices. It is therefore not absolutely essential that both sensor devices are constructed identically. For example, it is possible to couple the evaluation device to a video sensor while the neural network receives input data from a lidar sensor.
- the evaluation device and the associated sensor device can deliver output data in a satisfactory quality.
- the evaluation device is a conventional or conventional system that has been able in the past to supply output data in a quality that meets the respective requirements.
- the requirements can be specified, for example, by technical regulations or by the manufacturer.
- "Satisfactory quality" means that the quality is sufficient to fulfill the intended purpose or the desired functionality.
- the quality can also be regarded as satisfactory if a defined minimum percentage recognition rate or - conversely - a defined maximum error rate with respect to the "objects" to be recognized is achieved.
- the training phase can be concluded.
- the training of the neural network should be carried out as efficiently as possible and can therefore be ended when the neural network delivers results with satisfactory quality. In particular, this state can be reached when only slight or negligible deviations of the results of the neural network from those of the evaluation device are determined. It is also possible to determine the number of iterations or feedbacks and to assume that the neural network has been adequately trained when a predetermined number of data records (e.g. hundreds of thousands or millions) is reached. In these cases, the completion of the training phase is determined so that the neural network can subsequently also be operated independently.
- the evaluation device can be separated from the neural network, whereby the neural network can be operated autonomously without the evaluation device having to continue to be operated in parallel.
- the neural network can then be operated in isolation, without the evaluation device.
- the evaluation device can thus be removed from the arrangement.
- the evaluation device and the neural network can be operated in parallel.
- the evaluation device and the neural network can complement each other, so that the quality of work of the overall system consisting of both systems can be improved. It is also possible to provide additional properties.
- a system with an evaluation device and a video sensor can be supplemented by a neural network with an imaging RADAR, IR or LIDAR sensor in order to recognize objects of an input image from the sum of the findings with high precision.
- Neural networks can be used for a variety of functionalities, with the given functionality being able to be selected from the group recognizing one or more objects, recognizing text, writing, images, patterns, vehicles, people or faces, recognizing spatial correlations, optimization processes, regulation and analysis of complex processes, early warning systems, optimization, time series analysis, language generation, data mining, machine translation, medical diagnostics, epidemiology, biometrics, sound systems, navigation with imaging sensors, recognition of chronological sequences, predictive maintenance, etc.
- FIG. 1 shows a schematic representation of a conventional system with a conventional evaluation device
- Figure 2 shows an inventive device for training a neural network
- Figure 3 shows an example of an application of an already trained
- Figure 1 shows a schematic representation of the structure of a conventional system with a conventional evaluation device 1, which is coupled to a video sensor 2.
- the evaluation device 1 known per se is designed to carry out video-based object recognition. It is thus able to recognize 3 objects based on input data generated by video sensor 2 and to supply information about identified (classified) objects 5 as output data 4.
- a real situation 6 with real objects 7 is recorded by the video sensor 2 and supplied to the evaluation device 1 in the form of input data 3.
- the functionality of the evaluation device 1 enables information about the real objects 7 to be determined from the input data 3 and output in the form of the output data 4, so that the identified objects 5 (recognized by the evaluation device 1) are determined as the results of the evaluation device 1 .
- Such proven systems for object detection can e.g. can be used for the recognition of traffic signs by cars or the recognition of pedestrians by autonomous vehicles. These systems can also be used, for example, to identify objects on conveyor belts.
- FIG. 2 shows an example of a device according to the invention for training a neural network. Part of this device is the evaluation device 1 with the video sensor 2 already explained in connection with FIG. 1. The real objects 7 in the real situation 6 can thus be output by the evaluation device as output data 4 with the identified objects 5 as a result.
- a neural network 8 (also referred to as a neural network) is arranged, which is to be trained by the evaluation device 1.
- the neural network 8 is thus initially in an initial state was not yet able to deliver satisfactory results.
- the neural network 8 can also be coupled to a video sensor 2. In the specific example, however, the neural network 8 is coupled to a LIDAR sensor 9.
- LIDAR also called LADAR
- LIDAR sensors have proven particularly useful for the detection of three-dimensional situations.
- the LIDAR sensor 9 is confronted with the same real situation 6 and thus with the same real objects 7 as the video sensor 2 or the evaluation device 1.
- the LIDAR sensor 9 thus supplies its own input data 10, which are processed in the neural network 8.
- the results of the neural network 8 are provided as output data 11 and consist in particular of weightings. From the results or weightings, corresponding insights regarding the identified objects 5 result.
- the results are usually also given as probabilities ("prediction").
- sensors can also be coupled to the neural network 8 if this makes sense for the planned application.
- the neural network 8 is still incompletely trained and of the two real objects 7 has only recognized the square as the only identified object 5, but not the triangle as another real object 7. For the reliable one Recognizing the triangle, the neural network 8 must therefore be trained even further.
- the results of the evaluation device 1 and the neural network 8 in the form of the output data 4, 11 are fed to a comparison device 12 which carries out an evaluation of the results of the neural network 8, in particular in comparison to the results of the evaluation device 1.
- the output data 4, 1 1 can be compared to one another in this way to determine the quality of the output data 1 1 of the neural network 8 in relation to the output data 4 of the evaluation device 1.
- the findings of the comparison device 12 are guided back to the neural network 8 with the aid of a feedback device 13.
- the feedback serves in particular as error feedback in order to correct errors in the neural network.
- the feedback is often also referred to as "back propagation" and can be implemented by known methods.
- a proven method is, for example, the gradient descent method, which starts with a randomly selected weight combination, for which the gradient is determined and descended by a predetermined length - the learning rate. This changes the weights accordingly. The gradient is again determined for the newly obtained weight combination and the weights are modified again. This process is repeated until a local minimum or global minimum is reached or until a predetermined maximum number of repetitions has been reached.
- the neural network 8 is trained so that the results generated by it are increasingly approaching the results of the proven, conventional evaluation device 1.
- the evaluation device 1 is no longer required in this case.
- the neural network 8 can be operated independently according to the structure of FIG. 3 and delivers results of sufficient quality.
- the neural network 8 is suitable for identifying both the square and the triangle as identified objects 5.
- the neural network 8 can be operated in parallel with the conventional evaluation device 1, it is possible without any problems to train the neural network 8 in real operation, that is to say in real use of the evaluation device 1.
- the "test data” generated by the evaluation device 1 are ret usable data that can be used as a "by-product" for training the neural network 8. It is therefore not necessary to set up an independent training phase. Rather, the training could take place in normal normal operation of the evaluation device 1.
- the use of new sensors with evaluation by a neural network is particularly simplified where little or no training data is available.
- the method can also make it possible to continue learning the neural network over a longer period of time in order to increase the reliability of the neural network more and more.
